the medicine she has taken for six years.

The above is from very reliable farmer,
whose daughter was in poor health for
seven or eight years, and could obtain no
relief until she used Hop Bitters. She is
now in as good health as any person In this
country. We have large sales. and they
are making remarkable cures.

Gen. Boulanger's Hotel Advcn-
ture.
From The Philadelphia Press.

From The Philadelphia Press.
At this time, when the eyes the eyes
OF Europe are upon Gen. Boulanger,
the French minister OF war, it may
not be out OF place to recall an Incl
dent of his short sojourn in this city,
especially as it shows the personal
bravery OF the little French general.
When the delegates from France re-
turned from the Yorktown celebration,
in October, 1881, to this city Gen.
Boulanger, who was one OF their num-
Der, occupied u suite OF rooms on the
second floor OF the continental hotel.
On retiring for the night on
the last evening which the
DISTINGUISHED delegates spent
in Philadelphia, the general placed his
watch and his numerous decorations
on the handicapped table in the
centre OF the room. He was awaken
ed about 6 o'clock the next morning
by the blinking OF the watch chain
against the marble top, and on look
ing up saw the figure OF large man
standing motionless at the loot OF the
bed. The Frenchman spoke, demand
ny who it was and what was wanted,
out the man instead OF answering
made a q dash for the door. Before
he could reach it Boulanger sprang to
the floor, and, drawing the sword
which lay with his uniform on a chair
at the head OF his bed, barred the
thief's way, and then with the point
Of his weapon at the intruder's breast
drove him back into a corner. al. he
had advanced" said the general aft
srward. 81 would have pinned HIM to
the wall" Count Lichtenstein, who
was in the adjoining room, brought
the special officer OF the hotel upon
The scene, but Boulanger refused to
surrender his prisoner to any one but
= 'gendarme."
The nearest approach TO this was
one OF the reserved officers, to whom
The general delivered the thief. The
man was arraigned before Magistrate
Ladner and gave the name of William
Marsden, aged fifty-five. He was re-
,oenized as Bill Connolly alias Buffalo
Bill, an old offender, who had already
spent several terms in Jail. The case
was brought before the grand jury on
he same day and a true bill. was
ound. Connolly was tried and con-
sicted before Judge Allison in the
afternoon and was sentenced to three
years' imprisonment, the judge express
nc regret that the law did not allow
him to put such an old offender in Jail
or life. The French visitors we're
much impressed with the summary
american methods OF railroading
milty man into Jail in one day.

STEAMERS ON THE NILE.

The Egyptian Gazette, published in Alex
andria, contains an account of the visit PAID
by his Highness the Khedive, on the 29th ult',
to inspect the new steamship, Prince Abbas'
the pioneer of a new feet established by
Messrs. Thomas Cook and Son, for passenger
traffic on the Nile. The Prince Abbas is admlra-
bly, appointed in every respect, and the illustri-
GUS visitor was not sparing in the expression OF
his commentator. He was especially graft
fed when told that instructions had been given
by the proprietors that the steamers are to be
worked chiefly by native Egyptians. The
new vessels are all of steel, and have been con-
structed by eminent builders in Scotland and
France. Each contains a dining saloon, state
rooms, a ladies saloon, and bath rooms, and
there is accommodation for thirty-two saloon
and thirty ~second-class passengers. These
steamers are by far the finest and most COM
Portable that have ever Piled regularly on the

THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE MAG
DALENA RIVER,

The memorial presented to the govern
ment of the Republic by the business men
of BarrAnquilla, and which has now been
followed by one signed by nearly 2,OOO cltl-
zens. and addressed to the National Coun-
Gil, and not to the Executive, proves that
the inhabitants Of Barranquilla earnestly
desire that the Magdalena River should be
made navigable. Lengthy articles which
have been published concluslveiy prove
that people in Barranquilla fully appreci-
ate the benefits which will be derived by
that mort from the execution of the long
projected improvements at the Bocas ne
Ceuiza.
The projected work is Of greater impor-
lance than is generally believed, and view
ed from three only of its many points of
interests, is we'll worthy of serious atten-
ton. The points to which we allude are
Firstly, Its bearing on the National inte-
rests of Colombia; Secondly, The profita-
BILE relation it will lave to the great inter
oceanic channel now being cat across this
Isthmus; and, Thirdly, In the influence it
will probably exercise on the intercourse
of the Republic with foreign nations.
Examined under these three heads we
NAV enumerate the Advantages to be gain.
ed as follows -
FIRsTLY-Its bearing on the National
interests of COEOmbiG-That it will devel-
one and facilitate commerce with the inte-
riOr is self evident. Whatever cheapens
and expedites the carriage OF home pro-
ducts to the foreign markets must necessa-
riIy augment the business Of the Republic.
The improvements now proposed will bring
about these results, by allowing exports
to be taken alongside the vessels, without
mourning railway, carriage, and other Elk.
Denses. Indirectly it will also cheaper
freight and transport, because increased
mort facilities would lessen the charges
which now weigh on ships. 1t must also
be borne in mind that Savanilla has a bad
name among Seafaring men for the deten-
tions and annOyances attendant on the
movement of passengers and cargo.
Argument is scarcely needed to prove
that in proportion as facilities are extend.
cd TO foreign SO internal indus
tries will flourish. Take the article of ma
hogany as a sample. Cuba and Santo
Domingo, the former sources of supply,
are exhausted, and the United States and
Europe now seek fresh fields from which
TO obtain this valuable wood. If measures
are adopted to facilite the export of this
wood. the Cauca and San Jorge will sOor
pesound With the axe of the cutters. Pro-
badly there is no country in the world which
abounds with a larger variety of beautiful
woods than Colombia, and many of which
are at present unknown in the interior.

ST.. PETERSBURG, Dec, 10.
The Official Messenger to-day pub
fishes the following communication :
The events in Bulgaria, which,
lntelligibly enough, caused excitement
in the Russian public and in the press,
have served, among other things, to
furnish some papers with an oppor-
tunity for discussing the political rela-
tons between the European Powers
on n side and Russia on the other.
Some journals, however, not combining
Interpretations to generally known
and undoubted facts, have, with the
object of e%lucIdating these relations,
INDUCED in speculations and suppo-
sitions. Based on such unstable
ground, their reasonings, therefore,
moi only deviate from an impartial
Judgment, without which a fairly
correct understanding of politica-
questions is unattainable, but distinct
ly clash with The reality. .
The latter characteristic distin-
cuisines some articles which have
lately appeared dealing with German
policy, in which it is sought to per-
snade the Russian public that the
difficulties met with by Russia in
arriving at a satisfactory solution of
the Bulgarian question are mainly
due to the secret resistance of Ger
many, who is, therefore, designated
as a dangerous enemy of Russia, waO
meditaIes evil against Russia's dignity
and security. Il can only be regretted
that they should allow themsel, es to
be carried away in this manner.
With Germany, her immediate neigh
bour, Russia is connected by numer
Gus vital interests, owing to which
the relations between the two Powers
have become more ana more consoli-
dated, as has already been proved by
several trials. Such relations are
equally important for the welfare of
both States, and they are recognised
as such by their Governments, and
we cannot but desire that they may
endure for many n year. The impe-
perial Government firmly intending,
